Aladdin is an animated television series made by Walt Disney Television which aired from 1994 to 1995, based on the original 1992 feature. It was animated at the Slightly Offbeat Productions Studios in Penrose, Auckland, New Zealand. Coming on the heels of the direct-to-video sequel The Return of Jafar, the series picked up where that installment left off, with Aladdin now living in the palace, engaged to beautiful and spunky Princess Jasmine. "Al" and Jasmine went together into peril among sorcerers, monsters, thieves, and more. Monkey sidekick Abu, the animated Magic Carpet, and the fast-talking, shape-shifting Genie came along to help, as did sassy, complaining parrot Iago, formerly Jafar’s pet but now an antihero. Jafar, having previously been destroyed in the second movie, returns in only one episode which also serves as a crossover with Hercules: The Animated Series.
It is discovered that mechanical bugs have infested every mechanical device in Agrabah. The Sultan requests that Aladdin investigate them. Aladdin finds that an evil genius, named Mechanickles, is behind the damage.
Aladdin and co. are captured by mud creatures called the AlMuddi, and they need water in order to beat them, but it's hard to find that in a desert so they use the next best possible way of beating them. The sun!
Agrabah is a very hot place, so to cool it down Aladdin wants to take a rain cloud, but there's only one problem. The rain clouds have a keeper. A bird named Thundra, so Iago distracts Thundra with his parrot like charm while Aladdin takes the rain cloud. When Thundra finds out that one of her rain clouds are missing Iago finds out that business and pleasure don't mix.
A prophecy of doom for Aladdin spells disaster for the evil monster of Fashoom.
An ancient civilization is giving premonitions to Abu. Aladdin thinks the premonitions are for himself. Abu shows that size doesn't matter by saving the ancient civilization from a dinosaur.
Aladdin feels left out when the Sultan and Jasmine have their royal parties, so Iago teaches Aladdin some manners. Aladdin impresses everyone at the next royal party except for Jasmine who wants him to be himself. Aladdin gets a little conceited, and overcomes this when he has to stop one of Mechanickles' evil schemes.
Abu constantly steals whatever he likes and causes the Aladdin trouble as a new palace resident. Aladdin tries to keep Abu on a leash to keep him from mischief, but Abu hates it and runs away.
The city of Gezistan crashes everyday and it's up to Aladdin and friends to stop whatever is causing it. They find that a group of imps are doing the damage, then turning around and accepting payment by the sultan of Gezistan to fix the damage.
A land swimming shark rampages through Agrabah. Aladdin and company climb aboard Captain Murk's flying ship to hunt it down.
